Posted by developer: Changelog entry added for MySQL Shell 8.0.13: Extra spaces before or after the parameter used with the \help command are now trimmed. Previously, the presence of extra spaces made MySQL Shell unable to find the relevant help topic.

Description: mysqlsh gives inconsistent responses from \? help lookups when extra spaces are presented. How to repeat: \? with trailing space: MySQL localhost:6446 ssl test JS > \? shell No help items found matching shell \? with leading space: MySQL localhost:6446 ssl test JS > \? shell No help items found matching shell \? with no extraneous spaces: MySQL localhost:6446 ssl test JS > \? shell NAME shell - Gives access to general purpose functions and properties. [...] Suggested fix: Trim extraneous spaces from help argument.
